Shane Warne's analysis is always worth listening

Considered by many as the greatest spinner of all time, Shane Warne’s opinions are bound to carry a lot of weight. The fact that he has a colourful personality and also a liking for being in the spotlight made him a great prospect as a commentator. And, he hasn’t disappointed.

What makes Warne a great commentator is the same quality that made him a master spinner: his brilliant mind that has the ability to read the game and the players’ mind.

It has been said that Shane Warne was the best captain Australia never had. Anyone who has listened to his analysis during matches would agree. Few other analysts can study the game and players as brilliantly as he does.

Some people have accused Warne of having an agenda of helping the Australian team with his commentary, especially when he criticized Alistair Cook’s captaincy. But that is not a universal view.

Warne’s perspicacity as an expert commentator is matched by few and he can enlighten the viewers about tactics and strategies better than most.
